He is a lecturer in the Department of Economics, University College London and Director of the Institute for Independence Studies (IIS).

He first visited the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea (DPRK) in 1983 and is one of a handful of UK citizens to have engaged in extensive discussions with President Kim Il Sung. His decades of work on Korean affairs have embraced people-to-people exchanges, anti-sanctions campaigning and research on and study of the Juche idea. His most recent publication is, ‘The Economic Thought of William Petty - Exploring the Colonialist Roots of Economics’, published by Routledge.
